Gas Laws Movie Poster - criteria A, C and D

• Work with a partner

• Purpose: To use transfer skills in order to apply your knowledge of the gas laws to a movie

• Problem: Your  team is charged with creating a movie poster that

  • has a catchy title like "Finding Charles"

  • has ONE central drawing that connects the gas laws to the movie

  • uses parts of the original movie to explain the gas laws

  • shows the formulas in a creative way like within gas bubbles or clouds

  • has graphs

  • has 4 "movie critics" explaining each of the gas laws as a criticism of the movie: Rotten Tomatoes agrees "Finding Charles" was awesome. The movie deserves an Oscar for showing how pressure decreases as volume increases when the pufferfish rose to the surface of the ocean and basically tripled in size. Boyle would be proud! 

  • has a summary statement for the movie and kinetic molecular theory

  • announces the sequel

  • uses at least 4 colors
